3D Museum of Wonders

One of the things to do that was on our list to do was the 3D Museum of Wonders Playa Del Carmen...so yesterday that is what we did. This place is really cool, it is an interactive museum. You either go barefoot, in socks or use a pair of the nylon footies they supply you which are new for each guest. We spent 2+ hours here. It was so much fun and so cool.....we all really enjoyed it.

I put together a little video of some of the photos from our time at the museum.

El Gusto Jarocho

We met up with Kim & Ted for supper at El Gusto Jarocho. The menu is seafood.....one of my favourites.

Coconut Shrimp

OMG.....this was so yummy!! The shrimp were huge and the flavor was amazing.

Al had the fish fillets....for the life of me I can't recall what type of fish it was but it was very very tasty.

Kim had the Seafood Stuffing....it was 2 fish fillets with a seafood stuffing that was similar to a soup....again very tasty!!

Ted had the Shrimp Kabobs.....another very tasty dish.

All in All El Gusto Jarocho did not disappoint. The food was so good, the service excellent. Because you are off the tourist areas you have to expect that not much English is spoken. Our Spanish lessons on Duolingo are paying off as we were able to communicate much better than we were on our last trip to Playa del Carmen. The staff were very good helping us learn words we didn't know, we'd point on the menu and they would help us understand it in Spanish.

The restuarant seems to have two sides.....I am thinking they expanded or it is just how it was laid out when they opened.

A great little seafood restaurant that gets 5 stars from us for the food, the service and the atmosphere.
